Chapter Eighty-Four: Once and Present
"Alikode, why are you coming along? It's dangerous on the other side of the battlefield canyon."
"Haha, Derek, it's okay to have you, take me with you"
"This ...... Okay, but when there is danger you have to hide."
"Okay, I got it"
......
"Amricade!" Derek looked at his companion whose entire head had been blown to pieces, his expression extremely shocked, this human companion he had known for many years had died in front of him. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Damn, how can there be so many human magicians!" No one knows how the information was leaked, and a human team would appear in the Deserted Plains to intercept them.
Derek and the rest of his clan launched a breakout, and a large number of orcs died under the attack of the magician.
"Shhh......h
None of the orcs survived, and the whole audience was filled with the corpses of the orcs of the Iron Song Tribe, and Derek's body stiffened to the ground, and his heart slowly stopped beating.
A human soldier ran over and checked all of Derek's body, before finally turning around and shouting to someone, "My lord, he's dead"
After confirming Derek's death, a raging fire was immediately burned in this area, burning all the orc corpses, and the fire was so strong that the humans standing outside did not notice it, and Derek's body suddenly twitched inexplicably.
The ground where he lay had cracked open a space for Derek to hide, and when Derek hid inside, he immediately merged again.
......
The wind was very cool tonight, but Derek sat in his tent with a heavy heart, looking at the rotting and worsening wound on his chest, the former high priest of the Iron Song tribe clearly felt that his life force was constantly draining, and one day, he would die and be reduced to bones.
"Tyrant...... What did you do with the humans to kill Alikode, what the hell" Derek said to himself puzzled, the reason why the Iron Song Tribe was able to grow so strong and finally become the third orc tribe to move into the oasis was indispensable, but the tyrant who was the chief of the Iron Song Tribe killed the biggest hero.
The reason for all this is unknown to no one except those who participated in it at the beginning.
Although Derek is hiding in the wasteland, he always wants to find out the truth of the matter, and then drag everyone who killed Alikod on the road.
"The speed is still too slow, and the Black Iron Tribe must grow to the same level as the Iron Song Tribe...... Why don't you get in touch with an old friend" Derek made an important decision, only to see a large white point of light like a mung bean floating out of his body, and these points of light finally condensed into a pure white white eagle in Derek's hands.
Without a call, the white eagle itself flew out of the tent, soared into the air, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye, and Derek's body instantly seemed to be more than ten years old, and the skin of his arms began to show deep wrinkles and dark spots.
......
Yang Xiu didn't know the movement downstairs at the moment, and Jemrary was trying his best to tell him that there was an intruder, but because he was firmly guarded by the orcs behind him, Jemrey had not been able to find a good opportunity.
"Why hasn't it arrived yet?"
"It's almost there, it's a little bit more walking"
"Are you taking us around in circles?" the orcs of the Iron Song Tribe reacted a little, they walked around the second floor for an unknown amount of time, but they never saw the same third floor of stairs.
"No, no, it's really ahead," Jamry said with a smile, it seems that there is really no way to deceive him now.
"If you don't bring it to me, I'll just break one of your legs" The orcs grabbed Jamry's neck, they had to go and bring him the two humans that Trevor asked for at dawn, and the time was very tight.
"Yes," Jamury nodded, he couldn't let his leg fall to these people.
After taking a detour without taking anyone, Jammary came to the stairs after walking for a while, and then went up to Yang Xiu's room.
"That human is up there?"
"Mmmm, there are only two rooms on the third floor, and the innermost one is it."
The "leading" orcs apparently didn't believe the cunning gnolls, and directly pushed Jamrey to the front.
"Chief, Chief, don't go to bed so early," Jamury prayed silently in his heart.
......
As a magician, Sodarman's room was filled with a lot of books he had brought from Maran, Yang Xiu had been living in the Deserted Plains since he came to this world, and his general understanding of this world was in this area, and the world outside the Steel Fortress was completely mysterious to him.
It just so happened that several of the books left by Sodarman were about the customs of this world, so Yang Xiu picked up one early and read it on the bed.
What made Yang Xiu feel very interesting was that he obviously couldn't understand the words of this world, but the moment he opened the writing, all the words in the book were automatically converted into Chinese characters, which was very magical.
The Deserted Plains is located in the hinterland of the Moros Snow Mountains, a plain deep in the depths of the snow-capped mountains, and outside the steel fortress is not a human society, but a snow-capped snow-capped mountain.
It was not easy to get out of the Deserted Plains, and the craftsmen of Maran built a steel fortress along the way to prevent the orcs from escaping.
"It turns out that the main human city of this world is called Maran," Yang Xiu saw the description of the city from the book.
Maran, the royal city protected by the Three Davids, where the royal family and nobles lived, is also the city with the most magicians, and the first generation of magicians established the Mage Tower in Maran, which was specially used for magicians to live.
It is worth mentioning that the location of Maran is the homeland of the former orcs, who started their civilization here after the humans expelled the orcs a hundred years ago, and then completely crushed the orcs to the point that they could not raise their heads completely.
"In the past hundred years, the progress of human beings has been very rapid, and the weapon is being updated every year, trying to get greater lethality, on the other hand, the orcs are still the same as a hundred years ago, there is no change at all, the only innovative Sodoron plan has not been confirmed for a long time, and how many years have passed since the madness potion that Sodoron conceived, and I still haven't even seen a shadow." Yang Xiu sighed, it was really difficult to bring the Black Iron Tribe away from the Desolate Plains, and as time dragged on, the weapons on the human side would only develop faster and faster, and the orcs' hope of escaping from the Steel Fortress would become slim, and they would eventually be trapped here forever.
"Crunch"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise on the floor outside the room, and Yang Xiu was stunned, the walls that were destroyed by Sodarman a few days ago were all repaired by him by the orcs with wooden boards, but they couldn't withstand the passage of too heavy objects, so Yang Xiu didn't let the orcs of the Black Iron Tribe come up to him.
But now the noise outside was clearly a sign of a big guy passing by.
Someone came up?
Yang Xiu gently put down the book in his hand, trying not to let himself make a noise, if the orcs of the Black Iron Tribe came up, they would definitely call him directly, but now those people outside are almost walking to their doors and haven't spoken yet......
"Intruder" Yang Xiu had these three words in his heart, he didn't expect that he had only occupied this castle for a few days, and he would meet a guy who wanted to do the same thing as him.
"I don't know who you are, but it must be interesting" Yang Xiu walked down from the bed, and a white flame quietly rose on his right arm, dazzling and hot.
"Knock"
The door was kicked up from the outside, and several orcs ran in directly from the door, and their faces were all faces that they had never seen before.
The orc led by "Catch him" pounced directly at Yang Xiu.
"There are a lot of guards in the Steel Fortress, and they use the most sophisticated weapons, and the current orcs are no match at all"
